To increase riding comfort, we recommend the use of Assos Chamois Cream. It's used by many professional cyclists regardless of their brand of shorts. Assos Chamois Creme - simply a must. 4.7oz container delivers many soothing applications.

Reduces friction to keep your skin cooler

Prevents inflammation and has antibacterial properties

Apply directly on the skin (avoid intimate areas) before each ride

After every laundering, apply a thin layer onto the short's insert to maintain suppleness, elasticity and antibacterial properties

This is the only chamois cream I will use. It protects well, and one generous application keeps you chafe-free for a century ride. It is a bit pricey, but one container will last me an entire cycling season (April-August) riding 3-4X/week.
